Kingsville, 18th District.-The Belair road,
now known as the Belair turnpike, is finished as
far as this place and it is certainly great ad-
vantage to the people of this section, especially
those attending market. But for county
roads cannot speak in very high terms of them,
as it appears that our present road supervisor
gives them very little attention.
Mr.. John ]. Hanley, of this place, who has been
in delicate health for some time past, has entirely

Hook is an active and energetic young gentleman,
with good business qualifications and one who is
capable of discharging his duties satisfactorily.
Now, as the spring weather is approaching, the
farmers of this vicinity are very busy. Owing to

Miller delivered the opinion of the Court OF APP
peals to-day in the of John I. Ensor VS.. Jos.
A. Bolgiano. Mr.. Ensor charged Mr.. Bolgiano
with slandering him by telling client of his that
"From what have heard of Ensor he will not at
tend to your case, and will neglect it; that If he
does attend to it, he will charge you so outrage
ousy for everything he does that you will get but
a very small sum out of your claim for the dam
ages" The court below found there was no evil
dence legally sufficient to sustain the suit. Judg-
ment affirmed"
